No, I don't. This mute notifications option is particularly useful for Wikibase users who may want to easily unsubscribe from receiving notifications from entities that are often linked to an entity that they created. I don't know if it would be annoying for normal wiki users or not though.

Lectrician1 added a comment to T275729: Comment permalinks: design and implement user experience.

I think this is increasingly becoming a common design pattern found on many major websites (see task description)

I also don't think GitHub or Reddit are going to be removing their "Copy link" buttons anytime soon.

more likely to used by senior contributors.

So senior contributors are more-likely to be able to decipher unintuitive designs than newbies? I don't think so. People are going to continue to ask "how do I get the link to a comment" at some point if there is not a button no matter how much experience they have. Nobody wants to keep answering that question.

Lectrician1 added a comment to T136479: Allow cancelling / aborting queries server-side.

Yeah @Aklapper this task is requesting for the ability for users to cancel a query on the query server, not starting another query when another one is running. This task should be open.

Lectrician1 reopened T136479: Allow cancelling / aborting queries server-side as "Open".

Reopening because it was declined for a reason unrelated to the original request. Users want to be able to cancel queries so that they can create new ones easily and not have to wait - not because this will increase performance (and what ideas do you have?).

Yes, this is somewhat tricky because all of the current links are stored in a JSON file that is then read and displayed regardless of platform in a PHP file. However, I wouldn't say it's challenging. It should be a pretty easy fix.

So are there any alternative ways Wikimedia can host development environments for developers?

I wouldn't think that a large number developers would be using such a system a single time. The benefits would outweigh the costs as well IMO.

Lectrician1 added a comment to T327820: Allow users to notate proper nouns for translations.

I'm not sure whether it should be for Translate or for Wikitext. It might be helpful to have it at a Wikitext level for usage cases such as documenting that a proper noun is talking about a particular page even if it doesn't link to it, or to establish a sort of tracking that allows people to see all the uses of a proper noun so that if the name of that noun ever changes, they can easily see a list of all of its uses and change them accordingly. For example, if a company changes its name, users can see all the pages the company's name was referenced on and change them.
